The CQC self assessment has been updated to better support teams and align it to the Quality Review Visits (QRVs) programme. Teams have until the end of June to complete the self assessment for this quarter if they have not already.
A reminder of the changes to self assessments:
- Move to quarterly reporting to allow teams more time to complete and better utilise the self assessment for quality improvement. (Self assessment can be completed at any time in the three month window; Q1 April to June, Q2 July to September, Q3 October to December, Q4 January to March)
- Questions taken direct from QRV programme
- Part one of the self assessment focuses on core questions for effective teams and encourages teams to consider “Good Plus” answers
- Part two of the self assessment focuses on more challenging and evidence based questions
- More opportunities for teams and team leaders to think and reflect on the evidence that can be shown at a QRV or a CQC visit.
The updated self assessment replaced the previous questions on AMAT in April 2022 and can be accessed in the usual way.
